Howto add Webserver to DHT Thingspeak sketch

By AusUser
- Sat Oct 01, 2016 9:11 pm #55963 I'm successfully sending my bedroom temp and humidity using this DHT and Thingspeak sketch located here https://eryk.io/2016/04/temperature-logging-to-thingspeak-using-esp8266-and-dht22/ however I'd like to my sketch a little further now an enable the webserver function aswell so the the esp8266 can 1) initially display temp and humidity, then move onto hosting the google gauges that I created from thinkspeak plugin page.

I've new to C# programming so I found sketch simple sketch that does what I wanted http://www.elec-cafe.com/esp8266-temperature-humidity-webserver-with-a-dht11-sensor/

However when trying to compile I get

ESP8266WebServer server(80);
conflicting declaration 'ESP8266WebServer server(80);'

Is this because the server(80) is already being used to post the information to thinkspeak ?

Code: Select all#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
#include <ESP8266mDNS.h>                // for OTA updates uncomment if required
#include <WiFiUdp.h>                    // for OTA updates uncomment if required
